Is this the direction we should be heading?

“Hu Xia was seven months pregnant with her second child when officials in Shangche township, located in Hubei province, told her she must pay a fine or undergo an abortion.

Unable to meet the financial penalty, officials at People’s Hospital gave her unborn child an injection on June 19. The child died two days later.

China’s South Metropolis Daily reported that government spokespeople said the woman acted of her own volition. But according to news reports, the mother lay motionless in bed, staring at the ceiling days after the “voluntary” procedure.”

She was over 7-months pregnant. Does anyone think she cares if the penalty was a fee or a tax?

Ensuring that nobody in our nation is denied medical care is one thing, but the setting out in the direction we are headed with President Obama’s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is quite another thing. His plan heads us towards a grim socialist future not unlike present day China. We need to replace the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare, before it gets started and that isn’t going to happen unless President Obama is voted out of the White House.
